So to sum things up: The ability to drag and drop a livecycle created form was just a bug. You also say that this isn't ideal because the transition into an "acroform" would lose all scripting, yet scripts still function (namely the calculation scripts from our form). My question then is how can re ...

So how did this happen and how can I recreate this in the future? Was the functionality of converstion from livecycle to acroform taken out in adobe X?I am unclear as to why this worked perfectly fine before an upgrade. This form does have to be updated from time to time. How will I update/upgrade/c...

So would I then be able to rip the form out of the acrobat record that the original form was placed in, save it as an "acroform" and then proceed to use that to drag and drop in to pdf files?

The drag and drop always took place in the pages section, yeah. "using an Acroform to begin with would be preerable, especially when moving forward"what does this mean for the work we have already done? How does an acroform differ from a livecycle created form?

Sent, and thank you both for taking the time to look at this for me.

Jono,If you would like to see Jono, I can send you a copy. There are no attachments, there is no fancy scripting because I created both the livecycle forms and the process of record keeping and I have only an as needed knowledge of java (very amatuer). This was very straight forward. Drag, Drop, Wor...

George, I just forwarded you my samples. Please take a look and let me know what you think.

Jono, it was a simple drag and drop. The worksheet was filled out prior to the drag and drop, but retained full functionality (scripting and all) after imbedding in the host PDF. It was updated then on an as needed basis. Calculations still performed perfectly. The one problem we had to overcome was...

As soon as I can clean up the file of any actual information, I will send you some copies. Thank you George

it was not an attachment. It was a LiveCycle designed form that was able to be drag n drop'd into a regular PDF in Acrobat after livecycle rights were enabled.  I am aware of the supposed limitation, but I assure you it was possible under adobe 8 or 9 (or whatever we upgraded from). The records are ...
